Gilded Locks

A Rogue returned in need of unmasking. A dangerous magic in need of containing. Her town and her heart hang in the balance.

Grace Robbins knows the truth about the Rogue, Fidara’s dead rebel, and she’d planned for years to take up the fallen green mantle. Mayor Nautin’s taxes have devastated lives and laid waste to an already struggling town.

A Rogue returned in need of unmasking. A dangerous magic in need of containing. Her town and her heart hang in the balance.

Grace Robbins knows the truth about the Rogue, Fidara’s dead rebel, and she’d planned for years to take up the fallen green mantle. Mayor Nautin’s taxes have devastated lives and laid waste to an already struggling town. But life, and legends, have taught Grace that even if she could survive rebellion on her own, such blatant defiance would put at risk secrets she must keep. Secrets she must protect.
When Grace glimpses a figure in green dashing into Sherwood Forest, the past collides with the present. Someone has revived the legend she’d abandoned. Grace sees an opportunity to prove herself a true Protector: unmask the rebel and convince him to hang up the cloak. But the identity of this new Rogue isn’t as obvious as Grace hoped.
The mysterious man has no intention of ending his rebellion, and the more Grace tries to change his mind, the more she remembers how it felt to desire to fight for the people, and how it felt to truly be seen by someone who believes in her.

How can Grace defend Fidara and its people against mystic treasure if she joins the new Rogue? But how can she stand by while her people suffer unjustly?
Can she trust a man who guards his identity so jealously? Grace doesn’t know if her heart will survive the choices she must make.
